Sports Injuries

What are sports injuries?

Sports injuries refer to injuries that most commonly occur during sports or exercise. Some sports injuries result from accidents and others are due to poor training practices, improper footwear or equipment, lack of conditioning, or insufficient warm-up and stretching.

What services do we offer?

Rehabilitation after orthopedic surgery is one of our main areas of focus. This includes knee reconstruction, hip and knee replacement, foot and ankle surgery, shoulder replacement and stabilization, and fracture repair. Another area of focus includes conditions that do not require surgery, such as neck and low-back pain, arthritis, hip and knee injuries, foot and ankle disorders, muscle strains and tears, joint sprains, bursitis and tendinitis, and overuse injuries such as runner’s knee, tennis elbow, and golfer’s elbow. Our physical therapists can prescribe exercises, stretches and a training regime that will help you to regain your strength quickly and fully.
